Planets
What’s this?Close
The ten bodies astrology reads: the Sun, the Moon and eight planets. The planet says which part of a person it speaks for, the sign says how that part behaves, and the house says where in life it shows.
Sun in Aries
The Pioneer. First in, first to try.

Beyond the planets
What’s this?Close
Points read beside the planets. The rising sign, or Ascendant, is the sign coming up over the eastern horizon at the minute of birth: the first impression. The Midheaven is the highest point of the sky: career and public life. The North Node is where the Moon’s path crosses the Sun’s: the direction a life grows in. Chiron, a small body between Saturn and Uranus, is a lifelong sore spot and the gift it leaves for others. Black Moon Lilith, where the Moon’s orbit swings farthest from Earth, is what a person keeps untamed.
North Node in Scorpio
The direction her life grows in: Scorpio, intense and private.
8°27′
Chiron in Cancer
In Cancer, Chiron is an early longing to belong somewhere, and a knack for making strangers feel at home.
5°06′
Black Moon Lilith in Aquarius
In Aquarius, Lilith is the outsider’s streak, at its best when it does not fit in.
12°59′
The rising sign and the Midheaven need the birth time to the minute, so they are left out.
Patterns
What’s this?Close
When several aspects lock into one shape, such as a triangle or a cross, the planets in it act together, and the shape says how: easily, under strain, or with one planet as the focus.
Stellium
Three or more planets gathered in one sign or one house, so that part of the chart speaks loudest.
In her chart, her identity, her mind and her discipline (the Sun, Mercury and Saturn) gather in Aries, and that part of life drew her attention first.
Stellium
Three or more planets gathered in one sign or one house, so that part of the chart speaks loudest.
In her chart, her feelings, her heart and her optimism (the Moon, Venus and Jupiter) gather in Pisces, and that part of life drew her attention first.
Aspects by strength
What’s this?Close
An aspect is a set angle between two bodies in the sky at birth. Some angles flow, some rub, and some fuse two bodies into one. The number is how far the angle is from exact: the smaller it is, the stronger the link.
Only the aspects that held from the first minute of the day to the last are shown; each figure is for noon.
Saturn quincunx Neptune almost exact at 0.5°
Duty and dreams kept trading places as the priority.
The Moon conjunction Venus close at 1.0°
Tenderness through and through: she needed beauty and affection the way others needed air.
Venus opposition Neptune close at 2.0°
She loved the dream of a person, and the real one had to compete with it.
Venus sextile Uranus close at 2.6°
She loved the unusual: original taste, unexpected friendships and a style all her own.
Mars trine Uranus close at 2.6°
Quick and inventive in action: she moved fast, broke with habit and made sudden changes work.
Mercury quincunx North Node close at 2.8°
Her habits of thought needed small, steady changes to fit the way forward.
